Overview
The E-flite 25-46 Adjustable Axles (F-EFLG304) are essential replacement and upgrade components designed for RC modellers building or maintaining scale aircraft with electric retractable landing gear. These adjustable axles are specifically engineered to work with E-flite's 25-46 size retract systems, making them ideal for medium to larger RC aeroplanes that demand reliable, smooth-operating gear assemblies. Whether you're constructing a new scale model aircraft in the UK, replacing worn components on an existing airframe, or upgrading a foamie build, these axles provide the precise fit and adjustability needed for professional results.
As a critical component within the landing gear assembly, adjustable axles allow modellers to fine-tune wheel alignment and geometry to match their specific airframe requirements. This flexibility is particularly valuable when fitting retracts to custom builds or when replacing damaged landing gear on existing aircraft. The 25-46 size designation indicates compatibility with E-flite's larger retract systems, suitable for sport and scale models in that weight and size range. For RC enthusiasts and serious scale builders in the UK seeking quality genuine E-flite components, the F-EFLG304 delivers the precision engineering and reliability you need to get your aircraft flying reliably and looking authentic.
E-flite landing gear components are recognised for their quality construction and seamless integration within complete retract systems. These adjustable axles form part of a comprehensive ecosystem of retract parts available through RC Model Shop, allowing you to source everything from main retract units and nose gear assemblies to struts, steering arms and individual replacement components. Whether you're a seasoned competition flyer, a weekend builder, or a modeller discovering scale aircraft for the first time, having access to genuine OEM spare parts ensures your builds remain airworthy and looking their best.
Key Features

Technical Performance
The F-EFLG304 adjustable axles represent the precision engineering standard expected of E-flite landing gear components. Designed for aircraft in the 25-46 size category, these axles provide the structural integrity and alignment accuracy required for repeated gear extension and retraction cycles without binding, wobbling or premature wear. The adjustable design accommodates variations in airframe geometry and allows modellers to optimise wheel alignment for smooth ground handling and improved gear reliability. Materials and construction methods ensure the axles maintain their precision fit and smooth operation through numerous flight cycles, whether your model aircraft operates from grass strips, tarmac runways or concrete surfaces. The axles are compatible with the complete E-flite 25-46 retract system ecosystem, integrating with main electric retract units rated for larger sport and scale models, 90-degree rotating variants, nose gear assemblies and associated strut and steering arm components. For modellers building or maintaining scale aircraft in the UK using E-flite retract systems, the F-EFLG304 delivers the engineering reliability and precise fit expected of genuine OEM components.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What size retract system are these axles compatible with? — The F-EFLG304 adjustable axles are designed specifically for E-flite's 25-46 size electric retract systems. This size designation indicates compatibility with main and nose gear assemblies in that range, suitable for medium to larger sport and scale model aircraft. You must verify that your retract unit carries the 25-46 designation to ensure proper fit and operation.
- Can I use these axles to replace damaged landing gear on my existing aircraft? — Yes, if your aircraft currently uses E-flite 25-46 size retracts, the F-EFLG304 axles can serve as direct replacements for worn or damaged axles. Simply remove the old axles from your retract assembly and install the new ones following E-flite's installation guidance. This makes them an economical repair option compared to replacing entire retract units.
- Do these axles work with both main and nose gear assemblies? — The F-EFLG304 axles are part of the 25-46 retract system family, and E-flite manufactures both main gear and nose gear units in this size. You should verify the specific application (main or nose) when ordering to ensure compatibility with your exact retract assembly and installation point on your aircraft.
- What is the advantage of adjustable axles over fixed axles? — Adjustable axles allow you to fine-tune wheel alignment, camber and toe-in geometry to suit your specific airframe design and flying style. This flexibility helps optimise ground handling, reduces uneven tyre wear, and allows compensation for minor variations in retract mounting geometry or airframe construction that may affect wheel alignment.
- Are these axles suitable for beginner-level modellers? — Yes, the F-EFLG304 axles are suitable for any modeller working with E-flite 25-46 retract systems, from complete beginners undertaking their first scale build through to experienced competition flyers. Installation is straightforward, requiring only basic assembly into the retract leg structure. If you are unfamiliar with retract system installation, our knowledgeable team at RC Model Shop can provide guidance.
- What operating voltage do the retracts using these axles require? — E-flite retract systems, including those using the F-EFLG304 axles, commonly operate at 4.8–7.4V, which corresponds to standard receiver voltage and BEC output from typical RC aircraft receivers and power systems. You should verify the specific voltage requirement for your retract unit and ensure your receiver and battery system can supply power at that voltage.
- Where can I find other 25-46 size retract components? — RC Model Shop stocks a complete range of E-flite 25-46 retract components, including main electric retract units, 90-degree rotating variants, nose gear assemblies, wire struts (left and right), nose gear steering arms, and other associated parts. These can all be found in our Aero Accessories > Retracts section, allowing you to source complete retract systems or individual replacement components from a single trusted UK supplier.
